1ST MOVEMENT: CONSCIOUS Though it may seem That I'm sleepin' While this whole world is Spinnin' I am conscious So conscious I am conscious So conscious of the world today I am conscious So conscious of the world today Malcolm said For those like me The media Is the enemy They tell you who To love or hate While all the time Manipulate Kings are thugs Thugs are kings America Mississippi burning You thought that I was fast asleep But with my third eye Though it may seem That I'm sleepin' While this whole world is Spinnin' I am conscious So conscious I am conscious So conscious of the world today How actions don't fit what you say So you say You fight for me But it's you who wrote The policy To lock 'em up Throw away the key He's a predator Now you selling weed You gave 'em guns That fill the streets Then tell the lies To keep 'em fightin' You thought that I was fast asleep But with my third eye Though it may seem That I'm sleepin' While this whole world is Spinnin' I am conscious So conscious I am conscious So conscious So conscious of the world today So conscious of the world today

2ND MOVEMENT: MERRY GO ROUND Somethings been heavy on my mind Did I press rewind? Matrix changes days Keeps the same time This happens over and again Reports on CNN Murdered my next of kin This keeps happening This keeps happening Fool me once, shame on you Man, fooled again (Somethings gotta change man) Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me When will it end Some say I'm trying to divide When I get loud and cry Wrapped in skin like mine We've lost another life I'm just saying what I see These lives matter to me So judge yourself If the shoe is fitting Cause this keeps happening Fool me once, shame on you Man, fooled again Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me Will we keep merrily going round like a merry go round to me (Repeat chorus)

3RD MOVEMENT: TROUBLE ON THE 7TH ST. BRIDGE If I stand for justice And you keep the peace Then why oh why Is your gun Pointed at me I've already got tears Don't need your gas Don't need your fear I'm a peaceful man That's why I'm here It was you that bought the weapons of warfare Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (Bridges supposed to bring us together) Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (Oh lord oh lord) Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (We got it, we got it, listen people listen) I can't breathe Stomach hurts Everything hurts They're gonna kill me MAMA! mama We all could see It's hard to breathe 8 min 46 seconds under your knee But that's not all you see 400 years pressure's been crushing down on me I've already got tears (Wheew) Don't need your gas Don't need your fear I'm a peaceful man That's why I'm here It was you that bought the weapons of warfare Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (Bridges supposed to bring us together) Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (Oh lord oh lord oh lord) Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (I'm a peaceful man, that's why I'm here) Now we got trouble on the 7th st. bridge (Trouble, trouble, we got trouble)
